Default Need help with motor mount and headers

Ok so i have lpp lt on my 02 t/a a4 and i keep haveing problems with the drive side header hiting the motor mount stand i adjusted them and its not has bad but its still there someone told me try poly mounts but i dont see how that would help because they would still be resting on the stand and i dont want solid mounts but i saw this on ws6store
http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...oducts_id=1761
they are spohn lightweight lsx bushing stands and i was wondering if they woul give me the extra room i need and i would get poly mounts with them as well. What do you guys think anyone have them or seen them? Thanks for the help

I had the same problem your having. I had to re-adjust them and dimple the primary that was making contact. Heat it up with a torch and hit it with a hammer, problem solved.
